What I hate about PIL and Image in Python


19th of October 2009

One really annoying thing about PIL is that it's importable as Image and PIL. It leads me and other newbies to think if it's different. I don't want choices: 

 Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:56:41)
 [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import PIL
 >>> import Image
 >>> ?

When PIL/Image is put into standard lib, can we call the module: imaging?
